Today the plan was to dig over the land at the factory farm and plant out beans and radish. The keys were taken to unlock the factory gates that would be deserted this Sunday and all the seeds and tools bought and stored respectively. I was a restful Saturday in preparation for the work to be made on that so called Sunday day of rest. Sunday morning arrive after the clocks had been put an hour forwards the night before, no need for an alarm my keenness to to get starting with the preparation of the land woke me up early. Low and behold as I raised the blinds and looked out it was raining! As the morning went on the rain got heavier and by 11:00 I had given up the idea of working on the land today. No rain for a fortnight and it rains on the day I want it not too!

After an evening of watching a good film in bed with sunflower seeds being cracked and eaten throughout it was time to retire and sleep as we were so, so tired. One last job was to take the glass bowl of sunflower shells out to the kitchen and empty in the bin. Oh I wished that had been done the following morning! As I walked past the bed my hand knocked on the bed headboard and the glass bowl slipped out of my hand hitting the lino. The glass shattered and the sunflower shells scattered all over the floor. It was out with the hand vacuum cleaner but that wasn't any good as the batteries were too low. Then out with the electric vacuum only to fin there was no suction as the bag was full. Finally it was a hand brush and pan that cleared the mess, and the morning we had to be sure to wear slippers before emptying the vacuum bag and going over the area again for glass splinters that were still lurking.

Ouch, I was moving old metal bits at work and my gloves had a small hole in one of the finger pockets. I sharp peice of metal decided to make a beeline to that particular place and cut through my finger. I had to go to hospital for surgery and stitches and now have no work for at least a week. That means no money and I can't work on the land planting trees and lettuce which I had planned this weekend. Also I was put on antibiotics so I can't drown my sorrows in rakia for a week either! To add more bad luck it is the finger on my left hand I am left handed in everything I do!
